Collective Performance
By Yue Yuen Yu | published on 4 July 2021
A Clockwork Lai Chi presented our first collective performance on 28 May 2021 in the exhibition premier opening. “Beep!”This is the signal sound performers will follow the hidden underlying rules. During the 45-minutes-long experience, the performance brought together the concerns of the present everyday’s life and practice, under the constant surveillance condition. In the performance, authority was created and power was assigned respectively from the top down. This performance engaged with attributes such as trust, command and obey, order and disorder, action and reaction, and the physical dimensions in which impromptu movements and gestures occurred with distinctive observations in the surroundings. “We are all Lai Chi”, quoted from the curatorial statement. The line between curator and artists / audience and performer was indistinct. Curator joined in the performance, who acted as a factor manager, offered commands to the artists, who were the “worker”. Audience stood as the action unfold around them and witnessed the controlling power of the watching eye. “With a deliberate intention to strip away our identity and eventually constrict our bodies into one singularity, I have made a set of uniforms for our artist collective to wear when we are “on duty” in this carceral space.” Iv chan, our uniform designer said. “Our uniforms assimilated the general impressions of the prison and factory outfit, but with a playful twist in its design, wearer’s behaviours are incited to improvise within the mechanism of power.” Although the workers face rigid rules, the performance choreography has no limit whenever the factory manager empower the workers.

展覽資料 Exhibition Details
Landescape1823於5月28 日 至6 月17 日舉辦名為「發條麗姿」展覽。展覽首次於大眾所熟悉的藝術中心 JCCAC 舉行，由13位來自不同背景的藝術家透過在地靈感及景觀共同協作，當中包括裝置及個體和集體表演。展覽以「 發條橙子」所為靈感而命名。 我們以荔枝替代本身的水果，成為我們刻板印象中的工廠女工--「麗姿」。 展覽空間在監視底下成為了一個實驗舞台， 在描繪一個當規條不被重視的情況下的不穩定的生態系統。這是一個廢棄，禁閉和重複發生的故事 - 製造和產品在無以名狀的權威和力量下漸行漸遠。 但藝術家的生產從未在積聚的陰影中停下來，反而出現了一浪接一浪的另類創作方法。展覽的過程會在7樓的MOST 展出。參與式的裝置位於L5的公共區域。 除了雕塑和裝置，表演還不時在L7的綠色空間中進行。 藝術家將隨機出現，並安排進行個人和集體表演。 請繼續關注我們的每週時間表，該時間表將在社交媒體和官方網站上進行更新。現場為公眾提供工作打卡紙，因此您可以隨時進出， 與我們一起工作，因為我們都是麗姿。
Landescape1823 proudly presents A Clockwork Lai Chi in the period of 28 May to 17 June 2021, a debut in JCCAC. The exhibition will showcase installations and performances both in solo and collective forms by 13 participating artists with all backgrounds, based on the inspirations and spectacles onsite. The show title is inspired by “A Clockwork Orange”. By replacing the fruit into Lychee, “Lai Chi” conjured us up a stereotypical Chinese name of a factory worker in the old days. The exhibition depicts an experimental stage under surveillance, and a new ecosystem with precarious balance seesawing within the eclipsed rules and regulations. The show is a story of abandonment, confinement, and recurrence – an epic of manufacturers and the products coming apart under the dominance of authority and obscure forces. However, art production has never stopped in the shadow of buildout, alternative methods emerge like mushrooms after rain.In JCCAC, process of exhibition will be showcased in Museum of Site (MOST), which is located on L7. Participatory installations are placed in the common area on L5. Apart from sculptures and installations, performances will occur from time to time in the Green Space on L7. Artists will appear randomly and be scheduled for solo and collective performances. Please stay tuned to our weekly schedules, which will be updated on social media and our official website. Working time sheet is provided for audience so you may clock in and out. Work together with us, we are all Lai Chi.
